The Parts of a Sunflower

We explored the parts of a sunflower by making our own.

First we painted paper plates for our sunflower's head.

After they dried, we practiced our scissor snipping skills by doing a fringe cut around the edges to make petals.

Then we used Q-Tips to paint the seeds in the middle of the head. 

Then we hung them up with stems and leaves to make a sunflower garden.

 We also labeled our large class sunflowers with word cards.
